Tim spends about 1/3 of each weekday sleeping and about 7/24 of each weekday in school. What fraction of the weekday does Tim sp

White raven [17]

We have been given that Tim spends about 1/3 of each weekday sleeping and about 7/24 of each weekday in school. And we need to find what fraction of the weekday does Tim spend either sleeping or in school.

This means that we need to find the time he spends in sleeping when he is in the school.

Therefore, we have to add the time he spends in sleeping and the time he spends in school.

Therefore, required fraction is given by

$\frac{1}{3} +\frac{7}{24}$

Now in order to add the fractions, we have to make the denominator same.

Multiply the numerator and denominator of first fraction by 8 to make the same denominator.

$\frac{8}{24} +\frac{7}{24}$

Now, we have the same denominator hence, we can add the numerator

$\frac{8+7}{24}$

$\frac{15}{24}$

Therefore, Tim spends 15/24 hours each weekday sleeping in the school.

The outside temperature at midnight today in Polina's hometown was 18 degrees Fahrenheit. The temperature increases by 1.2 degre

densk [106]

Answer:

only students who have recess at 12 p.m. or later may go out

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the time after midnight be represented by t, and the temperature be y. Since the temperature increases by 1.2 degrees Fahrenheit each hour, the time taken to reach 32 degrees Fahrenheit can be gotten from:

y = 1.2t + 18

put y = 32

32 = 1.2t + 18

1.2t = 14

t = 14/1.2 = 11.67 hours

Since the recess starts at half hour or hour, hence the recess would start at t = 12 hours, i.e. at 12 p.m.

Hence only students who have recess at 12 p.m. or later may go out

Ted says that 3 tenths multiplied by 100 equals 300 thousands .is he correct ? use a place value chart to explain your answer

Elena-2011 [213]

Well I can explain how Ted is wrong. 3 tenths multiplied by 100 is actually 30. The place value of the three goes up 2 times and the decimal goes backward by 2.
